Holiday In Spain

Hi,

I am looking for some holiday advice for next summer.

We (my wife and I and our two young children, 4 & 2) don't usually go abroad but want to have a special holiday next year as it is the last time we can go outside of the school holidays for a while!

Due to my wife's work we are restricted to the fortnight starting July 5th.

We would like to go to Spain and were looking at flying to Girona or somewhere where we can fly from Bournemouth.
We looked at a Eurocamp site staying in a tent and I was surprised to see that for a fortnight it was £1000.

We are open to a self catered villa/ apartment so long as we can walk to the beach.

Does anyone have any good advice or good websites to help start our search?

Many thanks in advance
Simon

    Have a look at the bungalows at La Siesta, stunning part of the coast

    I swear by this site (I'm actually on it right now looking for a place to stay in my next holiday in winter 2015): https://www.booking.com

    So far out of my last five trips I've used it to book private flats in five different countries (including Spain) and they've all been winners. Highly recommended, and it makes it easy to sort out apartments by price/customer reviews.
